I'm in Liyue, but I'm the only person in the chat group?

"It's a pity that this won't work Hanxiao."

Keqing, who was in charge of land construction, shook her head aside.

"It's not that I didn't think about redeveloping Guiliyuan. After all, it was the center of Liyue, but in the end I chose to develop Qingxupu. Do you know why?"

"At that time, the Salt of the Earth and Guiliyuan had not been flooded before. They were both large fertile plains. With the outbreak of the Demon God War, the entire terrain of Guiliyuan has undergone tremendous changes."

"Large areas of fertile land were flooded, and the Salt Demon died in battle, leaving large areas of land unable to grow food at all."

"Luhua Pond was originally a flower garden, but now it has become a lake."

"If you want to provide work-for-relief, I can bring half a million miners to develop Qingxupo."

"What Keqing said is what I think, Hanxiao, if it's just this point, I'm afraid Qixing won't agree with your suggestion."

After listening to Keqing's explanation, Ningguang also added:

"Furthermore, cash-for-work measures only delay the unemployment time of these people, but cannot completely solve their employment problems. After all, the ore industry has always been the backbone of our economy."

"Ah... you all think I just want to work for relief?"

Han Xiao looked at Keqing and the two with a headache, and when she saw them both nodding, she suddenly felt bad.

No... is there no one in Liyue who studies water conservancy issues?

Or was he too well protected by Uncle Zhongli?

Is it possible that before I can become the Seven Stars, I must first become Teyvat the Great Yu?

Thinking of this, Han Future Tiwat Dayu Xiao sighed heavily, then picked up a pen and drew a few lines on the map in the direction of Guiliyuan.

Then, under the puzzled eyes of Ning Guang and Ke Qing, he explained:

"Do you see these lines I drew?"

"The place I circled is the planting area, and the upstream is the Bishui River. Didn't you find any problems?"

"What's the problem? Has it always been like this?"

Ningguang didn't react at the first moment, but soon he and Keqing looked at the lines on the map and frowned, vague inspiration flashing through their minds.

"Don't tell me that you don't know that the Great Sage of Conquering Demons has been dispelling demonic thoughts in Liyue. The problem of salinization of the original land in Guili is not only caused by the Demon God of Salt, okay?"

"Dike, you don't know how to build a dike!"

To be honest, Han Xiao had wanted to complain a long time ago that there was no dike built around such a good place as Guiliyuan, leaving it in a state of overflowing water.

This means that the banks on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are in a state of bursting at all times, which not only causes the groundwater level to rise, but also easily causes the salinization of the land, making it difficult to cultivate the former fertile land.

Why did King Chen Gui finally choose to build the city in Guiliyuan?

It is recorded in Liyue's ancient book "Stone Book Collection": "The farmland in the town continues as far as Shimen."

It can be imagined that the fertile fields in Liyue once stretched from Cuijue Slope to the salt in the ground.

Even if a large area of ​​land is submerged due to floods, it is unlikely that all the fertile land in Guiliyuan will be deserted.

As he said that, Han Xiao looked at the two people who had already become somewhat enlightened, and went straight to make up a straight line between Luhua Pond and the ocean.

"Forget it, I'd better tell you my thoughts carefully."

"First of all, the Great Sage of Conquering Demons has been dealing with the demonic thoughts buried deep in the land of Liyue, so Ke Qing, your concern that the Demon God of Salt will continue to cause the salinization of Guiliyuan's land has been basically resolved."

"Then there's the work-for-relief step that you guessed I was going to do. Let the miners build embankments on both sides of Guiliyuan to dredge the river and solve the flooding problem of the Bishui River."

"Once all this is resolved, we can build a city, a planting area, and even a commercial trade zone with Mondstadt on the original site of Guili."

"As long as this plan is implemented, the population of Liyue Port will also be distributed towards the new city. After all, it is closer to Shimen, which can effectively reduce transportation costs."

"In this way, after the construction period is over, the 500,000 miners can be diverted into three areas. The first is to convert them into agricultural workers and contract land for them."

"The remaining two aspects, one is to expand the recruitment of the Qianyan Army. After all, with the establishment of the new city, the Qianyan Army must not have enough manpower."

"As for the end, if you don't want to do anything, you can use the money you earn to open a small shop or something in the new city."

With that said, Han Xiao added another large circle to the Guiliyuan and Qingxupu areas on the map.

"The plain area of ​​Guiliyuan is more valuable than Qingxupu, right?"

"As for the line I drew in Luhuachi, I have not conducted an on-site inspection. At present, it is just a suggestion, which is to dig a canal here to guide the salt water from Luhuachi into the sea."

"Or we can just be cruel and dig out the land between Guiliyuan and Wangshu Inn to widen the river, so that the Bishui River can flow directly into the sea towards Yaoguang Beach."

After finishing all his thoughts in one breath, Han Xiao's throat couldn't help but feel a little dry. He grabbed the teacup on the side and started drinking.

"Ah, that's..."

Seeing Han Xiao's actions, Ke Qing couldn't help but exclaimed in a low voice, but she swallowed her words mid-sentence and glanced at the other party cautiously, her face full of hesitation.

"Then why didn't you refute Keqing's idea of ​​developing in Qingxupu before?"

Ningguang has completely understood Han Xiao's idea, and it seems feasible to her.

But there was another thing she didn't understand, and that was why Han Xiao didn't tell Ke Qing about her opinions on the development of Qingxupu before.

"Because Qingxupu is not without development value. The climate and environment there are very good. Cleaning up the ruins can also play a role in diverting traffic from Liyue Port."

Han Xiao shrugged and said nonchalantly:

"But actually, as I said in my previous suggestion, simple population diversion cannot change Liyue's current industrial structure. The agricultural population is what we need to care about most at the moment."

"You must know that food has always been the most basic foundation of a country."

In fact, there is another point that Han Xiao has not mentioned to Ningguang, that is, Liyue does not have the technological level of modern agriculture. Young people from Qingcezhuang and other places go to the city to work, which is the biggest impact on Liyue's agriculture.

As he talked, Han Xiao suddenly felt that what Liyue needed most was probably not his 'Dayu', but a 'Shennong'.

Well, it seems that the plan to abduct Abedo will be implemented as soon as possible.

If that doesn't work, you can just turn the sugar over first.

Chapter 32 Metaphysics seems to be OK too

Of course, talking about abducting Abedo or Sugar is just a responsibly thought about Hanxiao.

After all, Albedo is the chief alchemist of the Knights of the West Wind and the captain of the investigation team. Even if Mondstadt and Liyue had always been on good terms, it would be impossible for Mondstadt's top management to do such a stupid thing.

It’s really a cold night.

Albedo, Sugar and the elusive Alice.

Let's not mention Alice. After all, she mainly operates on the border of Teyvat. Even if she goes to Liyue, Han Xiao is afraid that the other party will kill the Fulong tree one day.

That's a big joke.

Han Xiao is mainly greedy for Abedo and Sugar.

Albedo, the all-powerful alchemy genius, is basically just a 'Tevaart Da Vinci' or a 'Doraemon'.

And granulated sugar.

If her super dandelion, which can grow six times as many seeds and makes people in the city close their windows and doors when the wind blows, could be replaced by rice, it would really become the 'Shen Nong' of Teyvat.

Do you think you can't be greedy for a cold night?

On the other hand, look at Liyue.

The alchemy synthesis platform was placed carelessly next to Huyanyan, and a shed was built and nothing was done about it.

Sometimes Han Xiao even wants to yell.

Where is the alchemist? Where is my alchemist from Liyue!

Oh yes, they all went to practice immortality.

Thinking of the group of alchemists who were messing around all day long, Han Xiao suddenly had some ideas and immediately turned to look at Ning Guang and Ke Qing who were meditating.

"Ningguang, can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

Ning Guang, who was interrupted from thinking, was not angry, but answered patiently.

Although there are some things or policies that Han Xiao has not said yet, she has already planned to put forward Han Xiao's ideas at the Seven-Star Council.

Anyway, from the current point of view, Han Xiao's plan is still very feasible.

"Can I ask where the alchemist group in Liyue is and what they are doing now?"

"That's what you're asking about. There's nothing you can't ask about. I've hired you all."

"Hired by you?"

Ningguang's answer surprised Han Xiao, and she quickly asked:

"How did you come up with the idea of ​​hiring an alchemist?"

"I know this. It was originally to build the Jade Pavilion."

Keqing on the side tried her best to ignore the question of the tea cup and said in a quite 'normal' tone.

"Yes, that was indeed the reason in the beginning."

Ning Guang did not refute. She hired the alchemist in the first place for Qunyu Pavilion.

But as those alchemists added various attack or defense formations to their Jade Pavilion, she realized that the alchemists were definitely going the wrong way.

They shouldn't be engaged in the business of slaying demons and slaying demons. That's just too much fuss.

These alchemists should be gathered together to become Liyue's most important guarding and research and development force.

After realizing this, Ningguang decisively spent a lot of money to hire all these alchemists. As time went by, her Jade Pavilion gradually became 'scary'.

"you..."

After listening to Ning Guang's explanation, Ke Qing's eyes widened and she was completely confused.

She had no idea that the Jade Pavilion she often visited was actually the most terrifying weapon from a certain perspective?

Moreover, Ningguang can stay on it with peace of mind every day.

horrible!

This woman is so terrible!

"Well done!"

Unlike Keqing's fear, Han Xiao felt that Ningguang's decision was extremely correct, and at the same time he also realized that he had indeed entered a blind corner in his thinking.

He actually ignored the metaphysical ability of Fang Shu.

Studying some magic circles such as communication, heating, cooling, etc. seems to be no worse than alchemy.

But then Han Xiao's face became a little more worried.

I just don’t know if the minds of these alchemists can turn around, and even if they turn around, will they still have the ability to innovate?

Thinking of this, Han Xiao looked at Ningguang with hope:

"Ningguang, do you think that if I want to make a kettle that can heat automatically, can the alchemists make it for me?"

“Self-heating kettle, nice idea.”

Ningguang's eyes lit up after hearing this. She obviously felt that there were good business opportunities behind Han Xiao's idea, but after hearing what the other party said, she also fell into deep thought.

"To be honest, I'm not very optimistic about it. When I hired them to help me build the Jade Pavilion before, even if I paid a big price, there were still some older generation of alchemists who insisted on slaying demons and were unwilling to come."

"If you want them to become alchemists and serve Liyue, I think it will be difficult without the ideological change of one or two generations."

Numb, Han Xiao was completely numb now.

Ningguang's words are equivalent to saying that the current alchemists may be capable in terms of ability, but there may be problems with their thinking unless they start to change from the next generation.

But this damn thing involves education issues, which is another big project.

Han Xiao doesn't dare to spread the stall so big now.

Is education important?

important!

Can Liyue engage in education now?

Obviously, that's not possible for the time being.

He would not dare to propose education until the new urban area was established, Liyue's industrial structure was transformed and the agricultural crisis was overcome, and the official finances were at a sufficient level.
